SEVEN

I barely slept that night. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the stranger in the parking lot, the way he had reached for Mikka and the way my body had moved before I even knew what I was doing. I could still feel the man's wrist in my hand, and the memory of how easily I had thrown him away made my stomach twist. It should not have been that easy, and deep down, I knew it. I had always been strong because of hockey, but what happened at the arena had felt different, like something inside

    MIKKAThe stranger's words barely left his mouth before my stomach dropped. The noise of the arena seemed to change around me, with people talking louder and turning their heads toward us as if they had sensed that something was wrong. Seven stood completely still, but I could see the tightness in his jaw and the way his hands curled slowly at his sides. The stranger had not simply recognized him; he had announced something that could expose everything Seven had been trying so hard to hide. I looked around and realized that several people nearby were already watching us with confused expressions.I grabbed Seven's arm before he could move."We have to go."Seven looked at me, his eyes still carrying that faint golden glow."Mikka, I can't just walk away.""Yes, you can," I whispered, pulling him toward the equipment corridor. "Not because I'm scared of him, but because there are thousands of people here, and if you lose control, innocent people could get hurt. We need to leave. Now.”

    SEVENI felt them before I saw them. Their scent was faint beneath the smell of ice, sweat, and the multitude of people packed into the arena, but my newly awakened senses caught it immediately. There were wolves in the arena. My wolf stirred inside me, alert and restless, and every part of my body wanted to find them before they could get anywhere near Mikka. I forced myself to stay calm because if I lost control here, in front of all these people, there would be no way to hide what I had become.I looked across the ice and found Mikka near the coaching area, focused on the game and the notes in her hands. She looked completely unaware of the danger moving around her, and that scared me more than anything. I kept playing while secretly watching the stands, the exits, the hallways, and every unfamiliar face I could see. My wolf kept pushing against me, telling me to go to her, but I couldn't simply run across the arena and expose myself. I needed to protect her without creating pani

  • FAKING IT ON ICE: DATING THE SPORT KING   97: Get His Attention

    MIKKAThe next morning, I woke up with the strange feeling that my life had split into two different worlds. One world was the one I had always known, filled with hockey, training plans, games, coaches, and the career I had fought so hard to build. The other world had appeared so suddenly that sometimes I still wondered if I was dreaming—with wolves, mate bonds, Alpha trials, and enemies who wanted Seven's bloodline. I could not allow the second world to destroy the first. Whatever happened with Seven, I still wanted to prove that I belonged in hockey because of my own hard work.By the time I reached the arena, my mind was already focused on the preseason game. The coaching staff had given me hours of video to study, and I spent most of the morning watching our opponent's previous games, pausing every few minutes to study their movements. Their defense had a weakness on the left side, especially when their forwards pushed too far ahead, and I quickly wrote down several ways our team

    SEVENThe moment our lips touched again, something inside me changed. It was not like the warmth I had felt the first time we kissed, and it was not like the strange pull I had felt whenever Mikka came near me. This was stronger, almost violent, as though a door inside my body had suddenly been kicked open and everything that had been locked behind it was rushing out at once. Heat spread through my chest and down my arms, my heart began beating so hard that I could hear every single beat, and my entire body became so sensitive that even the soft sound of Mikka breathing seemed loud. I pulled away from her quickly, taking several steps backward as I struggled to understand what was happening to me."Seven, are you okay?"I tried to answer her, but my throat felt tight. I bent forward slightly and placed both hands on my knees, breathing heavily as another wave of heat moved through me. My fingers tingled, my muscles tightened, and the wolf inside me pushed against my mind with a streng

  • FAKING IT ON ICE: DATING THE SPORT KING   95: The Exact Word

    MIKKAI remained quiet after Seven said the words, because I didn't want to answer too quickly and then realize later that I had spoken from fear or excitement instead of my heart. The word mate had been sitting somewhere in the back of my mind since the mark appeared on my hand, but hearing Seven say it out loud right now made everything feel much more real. I looked at him standing in front of me, still breathing heavily after the attack, his hair messy and his clothes damaged, and I realized that I wasn't looking at a stranger or some dangerous creature from another world. I was looking at Seven, the same man I had slowly gotten to know long before I ever learned that wolves were real.“Look, Seven. I know something powerful has connected us,” I finally said. “But I need you to understand something before we go any further.”Seven watched me carefully.“I don't want this bond to become a reason for you to control me,” I continued. “I don't want you deciding where I go, who I talk t

    SEVENThe moment my eyes met Mikka's, everything inside me went completely still. Only a few seconds earlier, my wolf had been burning with anger, focused on the attackers and ready to destroy anything that came near her, but now I couldn't think about them anymore. All I could see was Mikka standing beneath the pale moonlight, her eyes wide as she stared at the creature I had spent my whole life believing didn't exist. I expected her to scream, run away, or look at me like I had suddenly become a monster, but she did none of those things.She simply stood there.I slowly stepped backward, my heart suddenly beating harder than it had during the fight. My claws were still out, dark fur covered parts of my body, and I could feel the wolf moving beneath my skin like it was waiting for me to lose control again. For the first time since the attackers arrived, I was afraid, but this fear had nothing to do with the Blood Moon wolves. I was afraid of what Mikka was thinking about me.“Mikka…”
